afternoon shadows greet us on our drive
feels so good to get out of the house
even just to go to the walk-in clinic
for an annoying ear infection
a joy to have a "normal"
medical complaint!
sure my ear hurts
but my heart
is content
cradled
loved
cradled
loved
♥
thank you sweet friends

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post - love it all, the image the words and the presentation. It has the feel of something "real" - slightly painful but still hopeful. It is life itself.;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely recent comment, your words warm my hear at all times...
xoxo
thinking of you... and grateful you found beauty even in the midst of an ear infection. i can relate to the relief of a "fixable" complaint...
ReplyDeleteI had one ear infection when I was 9, it was so horrible here at 44, I still remember the pain. You are such a lovely person to still see the light and be optimistic.......
ReplyDeleteI like that you shot toward the sun, and that you feel loved. Blessings today!

What a gorgeous photo, Laura. I love how you always seek the bright in the dark.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope your ear infection clears up quickly for you.
beautiful winter shot. I can feel the crispness of the air in those shadows and winter light.
ReplyDeleteThe beauty of nature is impressive and grand. We can forget our pains, or they are mitigated somewhat as we take in and focus on that beauty around us...
ReplyDeleteI hop you feel better, soon!

I love bare branches silhouetted against the sky, and the sun in this photo makes it extra special. Lovely shot Laura. So sorry to hear about your ear infection, those are nasty!

ReplyDeletethis is a beautiful peaceful picture. I hope you feel better soon! My good friend has MS too. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThis is just so very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love all poetry , and when it's shaped it appeals to several senses at the same time.
Peace and joy to you.
What a lovely view you got on your way to the clinic! I hope you ear feels better soon. I haven't had an ear infection since I was very little, but I remember trying to lean my ear against the metal frame of my bed to get the pain to ease up the last time I had one...and I was no more than five at the time and I still remember how much it hurt!
ReplyDeleteIt's such a beautiful photo and I just adore the way you've worked your words! I love this post!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great week :)
What a creative way of showing us what you are experiencing.Feel better, Laura.

ReplyDeleteTake care and God bless! :-)
Both picture and words are uplifting, despite the oft-stifling cold ;-)
ReplyDeleteperfection! Lovely image. I enjoy looking at your work and as my baby sis lives in Barrington NH I get to see perhaps her weather through your photos.
ReplyDeleteI hope your ear infection is better today. There is so much sickness everywhere this month ~ it's like we need a nationwide throwing open of the windows to air out the country and shoo away the germs:)
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking of you all day today ~
you are cradled, LOved. each moment of LOve--string them together.
ReplyDeletei send you another moment of LOve, laura.
